Waterford City, Tramore, Dunmore East, Butlerstown/Kilmeaden, Faithlegg, Cheekpoint, Passage East, Crooke and surrounding areas.
Customers can check if their property is included by visiting the Water Quality section of www.water.ie and entering the property’s Eircode or by calling the Uisce Éireann’s customer care helpline, open 24/7, on 1800 278 278.
